chellanging a registered a will

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 03 November 2009 This query is : Resolved
Dear sirs,

it is to draw your kind attention toward my query that a person died leaving a registered will,as in that will he has given the whole share to his two sons and exluding her three daughters,
Now my point is that is there is way for daughters to get equal share from their father's property.

No if the property is self acquired of the deceased testator, in case of ancestral property the will can be challenged subject to certain conditions. The query is silent on the nature of the property, religion of the testator and date on which the said testator passed away.

Daughters can seek their share by filing a suit for partition and seperate possession. But it is to be looked that whether the properties are self acquired or ancestral. If the properties are self acquired daughters wont get, if they are ancestral they will get 1/5th share in the deceased father's share.

If the property is self acquired then daughters can not claim share in that property. If in case the property of deceased testator is ancestral then will can be challenged and daughters can claim their share.
